WHEN IT COMES TO KEEPING YOUR
CAR CLEAN, DO LESS AT HOME.

We do a mean green clean and you can help keep our waterways pollutant-free by washing your car at any of our three
locations. We live in a beautiful part of the world––let’s keep it that way!

1RECAPTURE

During the cleaning process, the car wash water is gently guided down into a series of tanks.

This prevents our car wash water from entering the storm sewer system which would eventually drain into the lake.

2RESTORE

Using gravity to our advantage, the slow flow of the water allows for sand, dirt, and debris, etc. to be separated. This collects at the bottom of the tanks and is the first stage of cleaning.

In the final “settling” tank, the water is pulled up through a mechanical filter then pushed through into a cyclonic separation filter.

Here, the water is spun very fast into a vortex, causing more solids to separate from the water. Nothing greater than 5 microns in size is in the water after this stage. That’s an awesome result considering the human eye can’t see anything less than 40 microns!

3RECYCLE

The water then moves to the wash for reuse. This process allows us to reclaim more than half of the water used in our car washes!

Any car wash water that is stored after the reclamation process is constantly recirculated through the tanks.

It’s also treated with ozone that’s injected into the tanks. The ozone is responsible for curing bacterial problems that may arise in the stored water.
